Simpsons Hit & Run is so good. It's 2003 era writing but... the references they pack in are great.
HDEEEEEEEEE! Yeah I don't like Simpsons HD. But I don't mind the HD on Seth McFarlane's Cartoons (Family Guy, American Dad, Cleveland Show). If you watch newer seasons of The Simpsons at DVD quality, it kinda looks better though the colors are still washed out.

That's wasn't the sun. It was the Aurora Borealis... localized entirely within Skinner's kitchen.

I actually really like all the references in The Simpsons Game. Too bad the gameplay wasn't very good.

The candyland reference was sublime. I really wish they'd opted for levels based on specific moments in the show like that instead of doing a fairly outdated videogame cliche parody.
You can play as Lisa in her "Floreda" costume. What more could anyone possibly want from a video game?

Um, obviously it's a joke at the expense of record companies and advertisers that use dead celebrites to hock goods, or the hologram Tupac that appeared at Cochella.
Often The simpsons takes an event from real life and parody it to show how stupid or disgusting the practice is.

Yeah, I actually just saw this ep, it was pretty decent to be honest. I enjoyed the Bart and Grandpa sub plot which had a touching finish to it. It was nice to see them pair these two up, a real rarity. The Moe suicide angle felt a little serious and out of place for the Simpsons, but I imagined something way more offensive based on the one screenshot of Moe in the noose. The Lisa/hologram plot served as more of an extended joke, but like you mentioned its purpose was a commentary on how disrespectful the practice of "resurrecting" the deceased for the purpose of profit is. Overall one of the better eps of the season, surprisingly.

I loved it. I also played way more than anyone probably should have played of Road Rage.
Exactly. Crap I wish I still had it!
I also bought and played through the god awful Futurama game. I sure was a fanboy back then. :s
In fact I would show it to my dad on his computer, these sorts of games back then, and in the same sort of tone/voice and frequency as "Will you take us to Mt. Splashmore?" Only it'd be, "add to cart add to cart add to cart."
Such a great scene. The singing he breaks into reminds me of myself at my old job.
Damn, damn damn. McBain, I'm not gonna make it.
Oh stop talking cra-zy
Love the line delivery in this scene.
Love that scene. I was kinda like that as a little kid.

Tupac has a Facebook page?
Ah, the simple life of the Simpsons' family dynamic. Great scene.

Well I didn't think i was rehabilitated but i guess they needed the extra bed..I think my favorite episode is probably Bart on the Road, and I don't even know why. I don't think it's the funniest, and it doesn't have any strong emotional aspect, but something about Bart, Milhouse, Nelson, and Martin going on a road trip is just... right.

Bart vs. Thanksgiving is a terribly underrated episode.Love the line delivery in this scene.
Some of the best voice direction/acting in the series can be found in Season 2.

Wait, people hate Homer's Enemy?
Also I love Lost Our Lisa, if only because it's Lisa and Homer interacting. Whenever the two interact, there's some magic to it - like you could feel they really care about each other, more so than Homer and Bart doing father/son activities.
I really dislike Lisa the Vegetarian though, if only because she didn't get any comeuppance on what she did.
Ah but Itchy and Scratchy Land is a well-paced episode that, while poking fun at Disney, still involves at the heart their own show. They poke fun at Disney but at the same time they poke fun at the outlandishness of their own world. They don't make lame jokes on the expense of a country.
I think TPatP is not part of the classic season?
Yeah, I don't like Krusty too, or any Krusty-centric episodes for that matter.

That was always my mom's favorite scene. The Simpsons used to be so much more relatable.
Edit: Google Chrome insists that "relatable" isn't a word. My mind has just been embiggened.
It's funny that you say that, because the Homer/Lisa power plant story is incredibly endearing to me. The way in which they bonded felt really believable and I loved their team effort with the vending machine. It felt like the sort of relationship that could exist between the two of them after the ending of Lisa the Vegetarian.

Ugh, if there was ever an episode that actually made me despise Lisa, it was Lisa the Vegetarian.

That list of the top 30 worst Simpsons episodes from the "classic seasons" made me realize I haven't seen some of those 1st and 2nd season episodes in probably over a decade. The one that really blew my mind was when they get stranded in the woods and Maggie gets raised by bears. Holy shit

Even the worst episodes in those seasons had a moment or two of comedic gold.
LOL, for some reason the scenes that stay the most with me from that episode are Marge answering the phone and getting all excited due to Homer/Bart calling her (and then wanting to speak to Lisa instead). I actually felt kind of bad for her =(

Yeah, there's a lack of comeuppance in Lisa the Vegetarian which feels stupid. Still, Homer/Lisa bonding moments are really top notch and above Homer/Bart bonding moments.
In the vein of my previous comment, I always feel the real tragic story is Marge giving up her life and dreams to become a mom. Sure, she is good at what she does and she loves her family, but she could've been much more going by her highschool days, and in a way its very sad what she settles for in her married life. At least I have always been very sympathetic to her character.

It's generally implied that she'd have a better life if she hadn't married Homer.

I found that scene to be endearing as well. And yet Lisa didn't seem to have the issue with stealing there that she does in Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment where she even takes her mother to task for eating a grape at the grocery store. Seems a little contradictory.
I really like season 7 Lisa (and yes, that includes how she acted in Lisa the Vegetarian). In most of the season's Lisa heavy episodes that immediately come to mind, she was a lot more well rounded and understandable than she can sometimes be: intelligent and opinionated about things, often to a fault, but also often able to correct herself and recognize her own shortcomings. Additionally, there are plenty of examples of her simply acting like a child (like how she was bouncing up and down and annoying the shit out of Marge in Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield) in a way that makes her character come across as less dour.
Along these lines, I think Summer of 4 Ft. 2 presents a more interesting Lisa story than Lisa's Substitute (not to say that I dislike the latter). Multifaceted Lisa > super politicized Lisa (newer episodes) and super depressed Lisa (earliest episodes).

I will.
Just found quite a few episodes at 1.4x speed for some reason. Maybe so they can avoid copyrighting and actually post the full episodes

I never realised it until now, but Bart can't use the can-opener, because Bart is left handed.
